Tianquan Lian is the John H. Margaret B. Fassitt Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, where he serves as Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Chemical Physics. His academic journey began with a Bachelor of Science from Xiamen University in 1985, followed by a Master of Science from the Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter and a Ph.D. in 1993, advised by R. M. Hochstrasser. He pursued postdoctoral studies at the University of California at Berkeley under the guidance of Charles B. Harris from 1994 to 1996. Lian's research interests focus on developing efficient, low-cost technologies for energy conversion and storage, addressing critical scientific challenges. His research group emphasizes advancing the fundamental understanding of interfacial structures and dynamics that govern charge transport in energy conversion devices, aiming to make significant strides in improving existing technologies and innovating new concepts for energy conversion. Lian employs cutting-edge ultrafast nonlinear spectroscopy techniques to examine interfacial dynamics in varied environments, including photocatalytic, photoelectrochemical, and electrocatalytic conditions.
